U.S., Allies Pressure Egypt on Suez Use WASHINGTON, March 29 RI The United States and its *Euro pean allies today lined up support of their private shipping firms for a snail's pace return to use of the Suez Canal.

' But it was not 100 per cent ef fective. The Italians, for exam ple, were noticeably out of line. Four Italian ships were among a 10-vessel convoy which assem bled today 'for the first trip of fair sized shipi through the canal since it was blocked during last fall's Israeli-British-Fiench attack on _Egypt. THE DAILY COLLEGIAN.

Organizations Protest Among witnesses who registered protests were spokesmen for the American Society of Newspaper Editors, the American Civil Liber ties Union and. the American Newspaper Guild. Speaking for ASNE, J. Russell Wiggins, executive editor of the Washington Post and Times Her ald, repeated a previous protest made to Dulles by ASNE last month. 'Right to Know' This - was that the travel ban infringed on the right of peo ple in the United States to know, through their own reporters, about conditions in China. Members of the newspaper pro fession probably have differing views on the wisdom generally of increasing cultural exchanges with Red China, Wiggins said, but he thinks they are as nearly of one mind as possible "on the dan gers of closing any corner of the globe to reporters."
